“I donu0026#39;t know the stars, or modern Chinese teenage music – but I do know a thoroughly entertaining movie when I see one.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eKung Fu Dunk is pure Hollywood in its values – itu0026#39;s played for laughs, for love, and is a great blend of Kung Fu and basketball.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eEverybody looks like they had a lot of fun making this – the production values are excellent – and modern China looks glossier than Los Angeles here.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe plot of the abandoned orphan who grows up in a kung fu school only to be kicked out and then discover superstardom as a basketball play (and love and more etc;) is great – this is fresh, fun, and immensely entertaining.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWith great action and good dialogue this is one simply to enjoy – for all ages – and for our money was one of the best family movies weu0026#39;re seen in a long time.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePlease ignore the negative reviews and give Dunk a chance – we were really glad we did – a GOOD sports comedy movie.”
